Neutral Range Circles

Although you have an option to choose circles for Red and Blue no such option exists for Green.

It's not a problem except for radar ranges.  Besides being mistakenly engaged what other purpose do Green units play?  They don't transpond sensor info to the best of my knowledge, right?

They keep you honest. [:D] What I mean by that is that you have to confirm that it is a red, and not a neutral on new, unknown contacts.

In one scenario, I managed to successfully 'sink' 3 whales because I didn't confirm what my sub contacts were before engaging them. So I wasted shipboard torpedos on something that was no threat to me at all.

Yes you assigned the wrong weapon because of your mistake, you should have assigned *Harpoons* [:D]

Haha! Well if I had assigned the right weapons, I might have effected capture instead of sinking, eh? [8D]
